No fewer than three shops were razed by fire in the early hours of Friday in Sango, Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
The incident, which occurred behind the Fart Oil filling station around 4:30 am, reportedly began after an electrical spark from a plugged-in freezer ignited nearby combustible materials.
Investigations revealed that three out of a row of ten prefabricated shops were completely engulfed in flames before the arrival of fire service officials.
Though no casualties were recorded, goods including freezers, drinks, and other valuables worth several million naira were destroyed in the inferno.
The State General Manager of the Fire Service, Yemi Akinyinka, confirmed the incident in Ibadan.
